Windows 7: Wiping PC - Need step by step.

And the motherboard is not crap, its just I am switching from AMD to Intel CPU so I had to switch the motherboard. Its actually the CPU that is crap/behind in tech.
But they do not need to know that.

So download the ISO and Contact Microsoft, do you have a more direct instruction on this? Sorry I am just a bit worried now because I am really not in the mood to spend another $80 if they don't let me do this.

Well mate I am just saying that is what you might have to tell them a little fib I know it is really not quite the thing to do but if you are insistent on not paying for another OEM then you will have to do that. But you do what you think best.

I simply pointed out that the original install of the version you have got if it is an OEM will be tied to the AMD board and if you install the same OEM version on the Intel board then it will not activate. I cannot be clearer than that.

Well mate if you find out how to do that - that is take the activation code from a motherboard (uninstall it as you refer to it) that the code is already tied to and use it on another one without help from Microsoft then you are the first person I know that can do that.

I am not trying to be pedantic it is just the way it happens you just cannot change the rules as and when you please if so we would all be at it.

I think you will find Greg will agree with what I have already told you it is the agreement you take on with Microsoft when you install an OEM of Windows or any OEM software from them.

Reports are that MS is making exceptions on moving OEM version to new mobo. This may have to do with OEM being the only version available now. So you can try phone activation if activation on the new mobo fails.
